Half-Life
Review by auron508
"Still one of the best games i ever played"
Graphics 9/10: Good looking enemies, well shaped texture effects and of course first person view was just the icing on the cake! Not any thing like Resident Evil: Surviver or any kind of James Bond games!
Story 10/10: An alien spiecies taking out a government operation! Hmm, what's not to like about the story. It's exciting and from time to time will scare you. Dont play it in the dark.
Sound 5/10: Could have had better sounds. Some enemies sounded dull and corny. But overall it all found a way to pull it together. Dont expect to get the game for the sounds. Just my opinion but they could have done a whole lot better with the sound. Every thing else was good but the sound. The recording system must have been busted or sumthin because it really sucked.
Game play 10/10: This is where the base of the review is. I loved the idea of a first person. I liked this first person action game. Thank Goodness this wasnt like Resident Evil: Surviver. This game also has a lot of opions on who to pick and is better than the computer game. Plus it has alot of weapons for a game that's first person.
Control 6/10: What cani say, way to confusing. To use both analog sticks is too much. One for the camera view and one to move. No way this game has the best control. Plus on top of that, you have to press more buttons to kill stuff and jump. Not that simple to control.
Replay value 9/10: Good the first time around byt even better a second time around. You know where to go and it's less confusing the next time around.
Fear factor 10/10: Nice game to play for a scare. If you were afraid of Silent Hill, at times this game can almost get ready to A: Wet your pants or B: Jump out of them or C: A and B.
Second player installment 10/10: Its fun to beat each other with guns and if you are expierenced with the controls, its fun to run and hide then blow your oponent away. It's one of the best parts of the game.
Rent or Buy: Buy!!! The replay value is the main reason to buy. When you beat it 3 times you may not play it for a while but once you're reminded about it, YOU WILL GET ADICTED TO IT, TRUST ME!!!!!!!!!
overall score: 9/10
